What you've taught me

The trees and bushes finally have meaning
As I look out of the window and see the sun gleaming,
I pay attention to the leaves on the branches
And at last I see colour.

Now in my mind I envision greens , dark and light
But with my eyes I see reds , warm and bright
And I immediately think of you.

So I’m thankful that you’ve been there when I’ve called your name
When you’ve helped me through situations
That couldn’t fully explain.

When I lost the words and I’d start to fight,
You told me it was fine , that I’d be alright
So I sat myself down and I’d start to write.

And sometimes it seemed as though you needed me
‘cause I wouldn’t call on you,
But there you’d be.

That’s when I learnt what real friendship means.
Not just to be there when that person is in a state,
But to be there no matter that persons state.
To be there , simply for the sake of being.
